Just a quick post to share a layout that I made with the Studio Calico June kits! I love those plastic Crate Paper letters so that's where I started this time. I mostly used the main scrapbook kit which is still available and the Navy Pier add on which is sold out now.Most of the printables and the arrow cut file I used are part of the free downloads that come with the purchase of the More Happy Little Moments class. Today is the very last day to sign up so click here if you want to check it out! It's going to be a really fun class!

I am loving the newest collection from Studio Calico, Atlantic. The soft colors are so lovely... pink, salmon, blue and yellow. Who knew I would enjoy working with pink so much?! I didn't even know I liked pink, but Atlantic has changed my mind... I'm finding all sorts of ways to sneak it into my boy pages. :) The cork accents and glittered stars, plus the vellum die cuts are just wonderful and worked perfectly for this layout with my favorite prom photo of Alec and Hannah. I used this cut file for the background of hearts. The little notes tag is from the Studio Calico digital shop.

It's time for Roundabout! For subscribers, presale starts at noon Eastern today and for non-subscribers the kits and add ons will be on sale tonight at midnight Eastern. Be sure to check out the Project Life add on stamp. It's a really fun, summery one. Love the little flower pot and the triangles. :)

The four Project Life spreads I made this month are below. Once again the kits had such lovely colors to work with. I had two big events to document this month - setting up the bee hives and prom! I branched out and tried a new page style, Design D. It worked well for the vertical prom photos and it was fun trying something new! Just click on each image to be taken to that spread in the Studio Calico gallery. There you can see which kits I used and see all the detail shots if you'd like.

The Pier by Crate Paper is a great choice for summery or beachy layouts! Check out the challenge going on now at the Crate Paper blog for a chance to win the entire collection!I created a layout with some beach photos of Alec from a trip we took in 2005 when he was 10. The "hello" part of the title was cut from my Silhouette with this cut file. I think my favorite part of The Pier is the slide frames. Love the look of them over a photo or with a cluster of embellishments! I did a little bit of everything on this layout - layering, misting, stamping, sewing, stapling... all of my favorites :)
